Well I'd heard of Final Fantasy again and again since I was a kid, but I never payed any attention to it (mainly because I didn't have any Nintedo stuff other than a gameboy, so all I heard was kids descussing it at school, and it went a bit over my head).

After buying my PlayStation I got a tips and cheats book which included a walkthourogh for Final Fantasy VII, I was very intrigued by this game I had never played, so I eventually got it. It's been my favourite FF ever since.

Note: I've lost the damn T&C book though, shame I'd really like to read it again...
